1 Annual Data Report Facility Survey of Providers of ESRD Therapy Chapter XI Annual Facility Survey of Providers of ESRD Therapy T Key Words: Dialysis facility VA facilities ESRD network facilities Hemodialysis treatments Disinfectant he Annual Facility Survey conducted, by HCFA, is the source of all the results presented in this chapter. Note that the data for 1995 are preliminary and may be subject to minor revisions. The facility survey contains summary data on facility characteristics for all Medicare approved dialysis and transplant units reporting patients at the end of the year. The Annual Facility Survey is designed to include most non-medicare dialysis patients while the USRDS patient database generally does not 1. (Commencing with Wave I of the DMMS, non- Medicare patients are included in the USRDS Special Studies). ESRD Units: Number and Location Since Medicare extended coverage to patients with ESRD in 1973, there has been sustained growth in the number of institutions providing ESRD services for patients covered by Medicare. For example, Figure XI-1 shows that there were 2,64 units counted in the Facility Survey in 199. By 1995 the number had grown to 2,894, representing a 7. percent annual compound growth. During the same interval, the number of kidney transplant centers grew from 224 to 239, a smaller annual compound growth of 1.3 percent. These facility counts, as well as other facility counts in this chapter, not only exclude Transplant center Dialysis certification Dialysis stations Dialyzer reuse facilities that failed to complete the Facility Survey, but they also do not include units not having any dialysis or transplant patients as of the end of the year. This overall growth in the number of dialysis and transplant units in this five year period averaged 4 percent and varied greatly among the 18 ESRD networks, as Figure XI-2 shows. The number of units in the Upper Midwest (Network 11), the Northwest (Network 16) grew by 59 percent from 199 to 1995, whereas New York (Network 2) only had 2 percent or less growth in the same time period. The national growth in the number of dialysis and transplant patients over the same period was by 54 and 59 percent, respectively (see chapters II and III). ESRD Patients: Treatment Locale and Number As is expected, there is also substantial growth in the number of patients from 199 to 1995; however, there is slightly less variation from network to network. Networks 6, 14, and 7 had the most growth, respectively; all three had an increase in number of patients that exceeded 6 percent in the five year span. Network 4 (PA) had the least growth, with only a 5 percent increase in patients from 199 to 1995 (see Figure XI-3). 163

The Transplant category includes both transplant centers and units which provide dialysis services in addition to transplants. All units that complete the Annual Facility Survey and report having dialysis and/or transplant patients at the end of the year are included. Source: Reference Table I.2. HCFA has defined a number of different types of ESRD units 2 for reporting purposes: Hospital facilities are dialysis units attached to or located in a hospital which are approved to furnish outpatient dialysis service(s) directly to ESRD patients. Hospital centers are dialysis units attached to or located in hospitals which are approved to furnish the full spectrum of diagnostic, therapeutic, and rehabilitative services required for the care of ESRD dialysis patients (including inpatient and outpatient dialysis furnished directly or under 8 Five Year Growth in Number of Facilities, by Network, between 199 and 1995 % Change in Number of Facilities National WA MN NJ IN TX MS CO MO CT PA VA NC FL OK N-CA IL S-CA NY Network Office XI-2 Figure XI-2 Total percentage growth in number of facilities from 199 to 1995, by Network.

The distribution of dialysis patients by type of dialysis unit (and profit status for the freestanding units) is presented in Figure X-4 for 199 and In 199, freestanding, for-profit units treated 54 percent of outpatient dialysis patients. By 1995, this percentage had grown to 62 percent. Hospital dialysis centers treated 25 percent of the patients in 199, and by 1995 this had fallen to 2 percent.

This pattern is indicative of a greater increase in for-profit facilities in recent years. The number of in-center hemodialysis patients per station, by ESRD Network in 1995, is shown in Figure XI-5. Nationally, on average there were 4.2 patients per station. As in 1993 and 1994, Network 13 (AR, LA, OK) had the smallest number (3.2), while ESRD Network 2 (NY), had the largest number of patients per station (6.1).

The other Networks tend to vary from the national average similarly both on the low end and high end, with the exception of New York. A comparison of the results for 1995 with the previous 3 years (not shown) reveals that national averages for patients per station have remained relatively constant.

The largest centers perform approximately 2 renal transplants per year.

According to the VA dialysis census, there were 14 DVA facilities in ; 67 of these reported patients in the 1994 and 1995 Facility Surveys. Dialyzer Reuse The Dialysis Mortality and Morbidity Study (DMMS) includes a facility survey for each of its 4 waves. For the DMMS facilities were drawn at random for each of the waves. Figure XI-9 shows the percent of facilities reporting reuse of dialyzers in Wave I of the DMMS and Figure XI-1 shows the percent in Wave II. In 1993 approximately 7 percent of the facilities reported reusing dialyzers. The range of reuse reported across networks ranged from a low of 2 percent in Network 2, New York, to a high of 97 percent in Network 18, Southern California. By 1996, 8 percent of the facilities in the survey reported reuse of dialyzers. The percent ranged from a low of 42 percent in Network 2 to a high of 96 percent in Networks 17, 18, and 14. Figure XI-11 illustrates the type of disinfectant used to sterilize dialyzers in facilities which reuse dialyzers. Among facilities reusing dialyzers Paracetic Acid (Renalin R ) was the most common type of disinfectant used with 56.1 percent of facilities in 1993 (DMMS Wave I) and 54.1 percent in 1996 (DMMS Wave II). The use of Glutaraldehyde climbed dramatically from 3.7 percent in 1993 to 8.8 percent in Formalin was the disinfectant of choice for 39.7 percent of the reuse facilities in 1993 and for 37.2 percent of the facilities in Only 2.7 percent in 1993 and 2.5 percent in 1996 reported using heat alone as the disinfectant for dialyzer reuse. Figure XI-12 shows the type of water treatment used by all dialysis facilities. Approximately 32 percent of all facilities used both reverse osmosis and deionization for treating the water to be used as dialysate in both 1993 and Sixty-five percent of all facilities used reverse osmosis only and probably because of the added cost only 2.4 percent used only deionization.
